I like there are sections for game generals and just games in general
Same, I'm hoping it leads to some more sporadic/random discussion of miscellaneous games that doesn't necessarily fit in a _____ megathread. Like if people randomly want to talk about their favorite old ps2 game or something along those lines.
but you could always do that
I guess so, but I feel like each thread will get more eyes on it in the new section, where people are expecting to see those kinds of discussions take place. They would likely be quickly pushed off 1st page by frequent posting in popular megathreads. Maybe not though, but what's the harm in testing it? It's not set in stone like a change he-who-shan't be named would make. If it doesn't work well, I'm sure Inacio & the crew will address it swiftly. Speaking of, I want to thank all of you who are putting in so much incredible work to get this off the ground so quickly! It's working so well already and your passion really shines through. Thank you!
It's a similar difference to General Discussion and Fast Threads. GD had somewhat of a focus on long discussion megathreads FT had many more individual question threads (after the more spammy threads like LMAO pics were moved into GD)
yeah hoping it doesnt but im also more than happy to jump ship for a better alternative.
If you want I am totally up to host this on my VPS for testing at least. I got a pretty decent & cheap vps from a russian reseller and I use it to run my gmod server on it. Its strong enough to support 2 low-player gmod servers and 1 low-player tf2 server at the same time and I dont think I got a data limit. Upload/Download is also rather decent. Id totally do it for free too, as long as your forum doesnt completely nuke the performance (so probably until you got a large userbase  ​) It runs ubuntu and I can give you a user on which you can do whatever you want (and ill install whatever you need, just write me about it). The location of the server is in france but I havent noticed any considerable delay. if you are interested my discord username is: SegFault (Biggest/MoustacheSpy)#0399
I've subscribed to a few threads, but I can't see anywhere that alerts me if there's been anything new posted in them What am I missing?
Yeah no. We've already got a host and having a random person have access to the DB is a recipe for legal disaster.
that's exactly my idea with the separation! i really hope it works gaming news and shit can also go in there, we rarely got them on fp

My light mode, fuck you https://i.imgur.com/2QodbD2.png Give me access to the repo again so I can make it not break every update
Yea im kinda stupid and didnt make that connection myself. Totally get it. Hope the project goes well!
is there no scaling method for avatars, or is the warning there just to get idiots permabanned?
it's a placeholder while i dont get the image server up, in the meantime if you intentionally upload a fuckhueg file you will be smacked
whoa now the forum is usable

The blue looks a little over saturated for the light theme, I'd suggest using a lighter shade, or maybe trying light gray instead.
Could you make it a little lighter like Inacio's version? It's more aesthetic. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/596/f9fb2c37-1c2d-4f87-b8bc-2857b99ba667/image (19).png
Only thing that sucks is Apple won't bother supporting WebP/M so anyone on stuck using Mobile Safari get an empty square.
ill look into adding a fallback, maybe. i cant really relate but ill think about it
Will it be possible for us to get backgrounds like we do on newpunch in a later update?
Recommend looking at the Trello to see whats planned Trello
That was my version he posted my thing
I wonder how knockout would work if it was designed to be a Scuttlebutt forums
I think that the dark theme seems a bit too dark for me when checking out the site. I think it'd be better if it was following the scheme of how the dark theme add-on is for newpunch.
